Woman Slashed Man In Face With Knife During Altercation, Greenwich Police Say

GREENWICH, CT — A woman slashed a man in the face with a knife during an altercation late last month, according to the Greenwich Police Department.

Kenia Guardado-Lainez, 28, of Greenwich, was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct, a misdemeanor, and first-degree assault, a felony, her arrest report notes.

On June 30 shortly after 6:30 p.m., Greenwich police officers responded to a home on the west side of town on a report of a physical altercation between a male and female, police explained in an arrest report.

"[The] investigation revealed that there was a heated verbal argument that turned physical," police wrote in an arrest report. "The offender, Kenia Lisseth Guardado-Lainez, grabbed a knife during the incident and slashed the victim in his face causing a severe laceration."

Guardado-Lainez was unable to post a $100,000 bond, and she remains in custody as of Tuesday, the CT Judicial Branch website says. She's scheduled to appear in Stamford Superior Court on Sept. 8.

Further details on the condition of the victim, or what caused the altercation, were not available Tuesday.
